This page is dedicated to all

the men and women who gave their

lives in the name of peace, in all our wars and the heartbroken families left behind.

They donned a uniform thinking, if the worst came to the worst, they would protect our country against an enemy, never realizing sometimes, they would be the invaders!

They had no choice, it was their job.

It was our job to bury the dead, when those first 10 coffins from Iraq, arrived home. As we did in all the other wars to end wars.

There have been 2,655 coalition deaths, 2,434 Americans,

two Australians, 111 Britons, 13 Bulgarians, three Danes,

two Dutch, two Estonians, one Fijian, one Hungarian, 29 Italians,

one Kazakh, one Latvian, 17 Poles, two Romanians, two Salvadoran, three Slovaks, 11 Spaniards, two Thai and 18 Ukrainians in the war in Iraq as of May 14, 2006.

How many more will we mourn?
